Cell must expend energy to transport substances using?
Facilitated diffusion.
What cell must expend energy to transport substances using?
Facilitated diffusion
A cell must expend energy to transport substances using?
A cell must expend energy to transport substances across its membrane against their concentration gradient, a process known as active transport. This energy is usually provided by ATP, the cell's main energy currency.
Why is diffusion consider a passive transport?
It doesn't require the cell to expend energy.
How is active transport different then then other types of cell transport?
active transport requires input of energy as it takes place aginst a gradient.
What types of cell transport do expend energy?
Active transport processes, such as primary active transport, secondary active transport, and vesicular transport, require the cell to expend energy in the form of ATP. These processes enable the movement of molecules or ions against their concentration gradients or across membranes.
Is endocytocsis a form of passive transport?
No. Endocytosis requires the cell to expend energy, therefore it is a form of active transport.
Does active transport require the cell to expend energy?
Yes, active transport requires the cell to expend energy in the form of ATP in order to move molecules against their concentration gradient. This process allows the cell to maintain proper concentrations of molecules inside and outside the cell.
What types of cell transport do not expend energy?
Passive transport mechanisms, such as diffusion and facilitated diffusion, do not require the cell to expend energy. These processes rely on the natural movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
How is facilitated diffusion diferant froma an active transport?
Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport which does not require the cell to expend energy.
Is facilitated an example of passive transport?
Yes, facilitated diffusion is an example of passive transport. The cell does not expend any energy; integral proteins in the cell's surface membrane act as carriers.
The movement of substances across the cell membrane that requires the cell to use energy?
It's called active transport. When talking about the cell, it is usually bigger substances that use passages in the cell membrane to access the inner part of the cell, and they need energy to get there. The opposite; passive transport or diffusion, is the movement of dissolved materials through a cell membrane without the use of cellular energy. THis happens with smaller substances.
